Lab Results

Regardless of where your labs tests are performed, your results will be reviewed either at your follow-up visit or by mail. Please do not phone our office within the first 7 days. We will notify you by phone if there are any urgent abnormal values.

We can normally send copies of your lab results to your primary care doctors or to you directly. Some labs will not facilitate this and extra steps and time may be necessary. We will reorder any needed tests at the time of your visit. We find that this avoids long delays of rescheduled appointments and decreases errors that result from laboratory orders sent in by phone or fax.
